Cars running sluggish...

Secret is release the pressure on the system with the cap off then refit the cap and remove the sensor. You will lose next to nothing mate. A litre is pure carelessness

* UPDATE *

I have sourced a new sensor and I have read up on the Vortex thread, hopefully I will swap it out tomorrow morning.

I just want 1 last piece of information to be sure. The vast number of threads refer to loss of Coolant ranging from a bit to a Litre.... can any one tell me if I will need to prepare myself with coolant as well. I plan to do it 1st thing in the morning so everything will be cold, and I will depressurize the coolant reservoir.

I let my car sit no longer than three hours after driving all day, then I moved it, let it sit for another 15 minutes, removed the old sensor and not one drop of coolant came out. I don't know why you would lose even a quarter of a litre.

Yeah mate true that , just careless i reckon, as long as you drop the pressure and refit the cap you will lose next to nothing
